Serial Number

Serial numbers are unique identifiers assigned to each individual inventory item, enabling full end-to-end traceability from receipt to sale, service, or recall. Unlike batch or lot numbers that group items, serial numbers track a single unit throughout its lifecycle. They can be generated automatically during inbound receiving, assigned upon manufacturing order completion, or created manually for adjustments, repairs, or legacy stock.
